Episode 20

Side Story 1. Two Letters That Arrived in the South

Meanwhile, the peaceful territory of Melissa Marquess’ Domain in the Southern Region was walking on thin ice every day.

To be precise, until one mail carrier arrived at Melissa Marquess’ Domain.

“A letter came from the Northern Region?”

“Yes, normally the Northern Region only allows entry once every three months, but for some reason Lord Ortejo contacted us first…”

“Bring it to me immediately.”

The letter in the mail carrier’s hands was delivered swiftly and accurately.

Directly to Airi’s Grandmother, Melissa Marquess.

Melissa Marquess hastily tore open the letter sealed with wax, and her complexion turned pale.

The contents of Airi’s letter that reached her Grandmother in the south were…

Grandmother, hello!

I’m Airi, the hero who will save the Northern Region.

You know, I made lots and lots of friends. I’ll introduce you to my friend Cookie too! He might like it if you sprinkle bean powder on him!

“Oh my, my baby. Oh my adorable little puppy. Our baby writes so well, so smart, oh my baby.”

Melissa Marquess’ eyes grew moist.

You know, you know. After I quickly save the people. I’ll come see Grandmother right away!

Her heart warmed at the sight of her beloved granddaughter, but only for a moment.

The Marquess’ pupils shook violently after seeing the words written below.

Grandmother! You know, so I’m going to stay just two more months before coming back.

Melissa Marquess, who was reading the letter, grabbed the back of her neck and collapsed.

Then the noble ladies who had gathered closely with Melissa Marquess looked puzzled.

“Marquess, what’s wrong? Please get up.”

After rubbing her stiff neck for a while, the Marquess muttered in a daze.

“This is terrible. Our puppy says she has to stay in that dangerous place for two whole months.”

The complexions of the other noble ladies beside her instantly turned bad.

“No, we came for nothing again today because Airi isn’t here!”

“We came for no reason!”

They had planned to feed lots of delicious things to cute and lovely Airi!

We need to see our puppy pat her round belly after eating to her heart’s content.

“Oh my, if I can’t see our puppy’s butt dance, this Grandmother will die.”

Amidst the commotion, Melissa Marquess barely pulled herself together and checked another letter.

[Lord Ortejo says that Lady Airi wishes to stay in the Northern Region a little longer.]

‘I shouldn’t have sent my puppy for no reason. I shouldn’t have let my heart weaken.’

It seemed her heart had weakened remembering her own daughter who ultimately couldn’t return home and died.

She was once a holy knight who wielded divine power to handle sacred swords.

Because of that, she became unable to enter the Northern Region overflowing with demonic energy.

But a Grandmother’s longing for her granddaughter is strong.

‘When even ordinary humans suffer internal injuries there, my baby has to stay in that place for two months.’

Right at that moment.

One relatively rational noble lady pointed to the bottom part of the letter and said.

“No, but look here. It says Airi became immune through ability testing, doesn’t it?”

“Immune or not immune, the problem is that my baby is in that beast’s land right now!”

“Well, that’s true.”

“She had already lost a lot of baby fat before I sent her, so I’m worried.”

She absolutely had to bring her to the south and feed her nutritious food.

Melissa Marquess, filled with anger, quietly looked around at the members of the 【Southern Grandmothers Who Love Airi Club】.

One member held up the letter.

“That’s not what’s important, did you all see the end of this letter?”

Grandmother, I decided to learn purification magic!

“My baby is starting difficult studies at only five years old…”

They were so curious about Airi’s current situation, and so worried.

But Melissa Marquess was in no position to visit the Northern Region filled with demonic energy.

The other noble ladies couldn’t even receive Northern Region entry permits.

“Still, don’t worry too much, everyone. Originally purification magic is done through master-apprentice relationships, right? I hear that Purification Mages will give their liver and gall bladder if there’s someone they like…”

“He’s also quite old, so wouldn’t he like our Airi?”

“Our family has that kind of belief too, right? Anyone with white hair has no choice but to love Airi.”

A perfectly sane adult with eyes?

Then that means they’ll definitely make Airi their favorite.

However, one of the Grandmothers who was well-informed about rumors fell into deep worry and quietly muttered.

“…I hear Purification Mages have many eccentric personalities and inferiority complexes, so I’m worried.”
